The Cassandra complex

£14.99

Cassandra Penelope Dankworth is a creature of habit. She likes what she likes (museums, jumpsuits, her boyfriend Will) and strongly dislikes what she doesn’t (mess, change, her boss drinking out of her mug). Her life runs in a pleasing, predictable order. Until now. She’s just been dumped. She’s just been fired. Her local café has run out of banana muffins. Then, something truly unexpected happens: Cassie discovers she can go back and change the past. Now, Cassie should be able to find a way to fix the life she accidentally obliterated. And with time on her side, how hard can it be?

Description

CASSIE IS NOT A PEOPLE PERSON. BUT SHE IS ABOUT TO WIN YOUR HEART. . .
As featured on Woman’s Hour, BBC Radio 2 Book Club, The Times & Daily Mail

Cassie has never really fitted in. She remembers everything. Understands nothing. And consistently says the wrong thing.

So when she gets dumped, fired AND her local caf̩ runs out of banana muffins Рall in one day Рit feels like the end of the world.

But then Cassie discovers she has the power to go back and change things.

With endless chances to get it right, can she stop it all from going wrong?

Not your average story. Not your average character.
But, after all, maybe fitting in is overrated. . .
